The Little Books of the Little Brontës by Sara O'Leary
4.0
Thank you to Sara O'Leary, Penguin Random House Canada, Tundra Books, and Netgalley for this free advance reader copy of "The Little Books of the Little Brontës" for an honest review.
I love the Bronte's, and a fan of other retellings of the children's lives (circa pieces like Valente's "The Glass Town Game"); I immediately jumped at this book when I saw it. I teach at the college level for English, and I deeply appreciate watching things made in these versions for teenagers and children. This book was adorable, sweet, and charming, telling us about the children's adventures without quite getting into the horrors and losses those children faced later.
I love this as a starter for younger kids, getting them to know the names, and I'm definitely going to be gifting this (and some of the earlier books in the series, too!!!!) to my nieces and nephews this year.
